ME GOD DAM IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!NO FOR REAL I SOUND LIKE EVERYONE WHO INFLUENCED ME. THE FIRST SONG I HEARD AS A KID THAT MADE ME WANNA PLAY GUITAR WAS THE INTRO TO THE BEATLES SONG REVELOUTION,THAT BLEW ME AWAY THAN OF COURSE JIMI HENDRIX REALLY BLEW MY MIND.ANOTHER BIG TURNNING POINT FOR ME WAS HEARING THE SOLO TO FREEBIRD AS A KID I PLAYED A KILLER AIR GUITAR TO FREEBIRD,THAN ONEDAY THE 4 GUITAR SOLO'S THAT CHANGED MY LIFE AND GUITAR PLAYING FOREVER ATLEAST FOR ME WAS (NUMBER 1 ERUPTION THIS SONG FUCKING KILLED ME I NEVER HEARD ANYONE SO FUCKING AMAZING ON THE GUITAR AND EDDIE VAN HALEN CHANGED GUITAR FOR ME FOREVER,THAN THE 2 SOLO WAS OVER THE MOUNTAIN BY RANDY RHOADS TO ME THAT WAS THE 1ST TIME I EVER HEARD ANYONE PLAY MELODIC CLASSICAL METAL LINES ON THE GUITAR AND THAT WAS ALSO AMAZING,THAN 3 WAS THE MOST OUTRAGEOUS GUITAR I EVER HEARD BY THE MASTER YNGWIE MALMSTEEN AND THAT SONG WAS FAR BEYOUND THE SUN THIS SONG STILL FUCKING KILLS ME YNGWIE IS THE MASTER OF CLASSICAL METAL THERE IS NO ONE BETTER THAN YNGWIE AT THAT STYLE.THAN 4 SOLO WOULD BE THE MOST OUTRAGES FEEL FROM A GUITAR PLAYER I EVER HEARD IN MY LIFE AND THAT WAS STEVIE RAY VAUGHAN AND HIS REMAKE OF TEXAS FLOOD,THIS SONG IS BY FAR THE GREATEST FUCKING FEEL I WILL EVER HEAR IN MY LIFE.STEVIE RAY VAUGHAN WAS SUCH A GREAT FEEL PLAYER AND TO SEE THIS MAN PLAY LIVE WAS LIKE HEARING THE ANGLES SING GOD REST STEVIE RAY VAUGHAN.ANYWAY I TRY TO TAKE FROM ALL OF THESE GREATS AND MAKE MY OWN STYLE OF PLAYING EVEN THOUGH LISTENING TO THESE GREATS IT IS VERY EASY TO FALL SHORT OF THEM BUT THAT IS WHY I STILL PLAY GUITAR CAUSE THESE PLAYERS STILL SPARK UP A FIRE IN ME AND MAKE ME WANNA GET BETTER AT THE GUITAR.
